I am testing several Diodes in a circuit and they all read the same values or close to it one way and then no reading at all the other way when reversing the digital meter probes.
I have read that a high reading on one way should be 10% difference from the low reading the other way. If not, then the diode is bad.
Also, read that a high reading both ways indicates a blown Diode and a low reading both ways indicates a shorted Diode.
So, if I am getting a reading of 7.43 one way and Zero the other is this a good Diode or not because of the 10% rule.
Thanks so much.
